Services | Coating Removal
Removal of industrial paints, varnishes, and coatings, without abrasion, without chemicals
A clean, controlled, and non-contact removal solution
Coating removal is a critical operation in many sectors: maintenance, refurbishment, restoration, treatment changes, or pre-paint preparation. However, traditional methods—sandblasting, solvents, sanding—are often aggressive, messy, and poorly suited for sensitive materials or complex environments.
Laser coating removal offers a new-generation solution, combining precision, safety, and performance. Thanks to this technology, we can remove layers of paint, varnish, primer, or resin without damaging the surface, and without creating chemical or abrasive waste.
Targeted Coatings and Compatible Materials
Targeted Coatings
- Industrial paints (epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic)
- Varnishes, primers, lacquers
- Thermal, anti-corrosion, or fire-retardant coatings
- Adhesive, glue, or polymer residues
Compatible Materials
- Steel, stainless steel, aluminum
- Copper, brass, bronze
- Concrete, natural stone (specific cases)
- Composites and technical materials (upon evaluation)
Application Areas
- Manufacturing Industry: cleaning of parts, jigs, structures
- Transportation, Railway, Aeronautics: refurbishment or treatment change
- Industrial Buildings: preparation before painting or protection
- Heritage and Restoration: layer removal without material alteration
- Energy, Marine, Defense: critical surface treatment, without abrasion
How does it work?
The laser beam acts directly on the coating to be removed. It vaporizes or disintegrates it through thermal ablation, without contact with the surface. No friction, no impact, no chemicals.
Each intervention is configured according to the type of coating, its thickness, and the material to be protected. The result is a clean, uniform surface, ready for the next step in the process, without altering the substrate.
Why choose laser cleaning for coating removal?
Non-abrasive removal
Unlike sandblasting or sanding, the laser does not abrade the surface. It preserves dimensions, texture, and tolerances, even on the most technical parts.
No solvents, no liquid waste
The process is dry, clean, and ecological. No chemical discharge, no hazardous waste management.
On-site, without disassembly
Our equipment is mobile and compact. We operate directly at your facilities without disrupting your operations. We use high-precision pulsed laser systems, operated by specialized technicians. Our approach focuses on safety, performance, and on-site efficiency.
Ultra-precise
The beam is adjustable to the millimeter. A very localized area can be stripped, or a single layer can be removed without affecting subsequent ones.
Less preparation and cleaning
No need to mask untreated areas, no abrasive dust to contain, no complex cleaning after the intervention.
